Idea is good, but needs updating

SDWxGirl

For $5.99, this should be updated way more than it is. 1. When you do a search, for a food item, there should be Tabs for the Alphabet. Instead you have to keep scrolling and scrolling. Once I add that food to my day, I would like to still be in the spot where I was & instead it kicks you back to the Beginning if the Alphabet. This is where the Tabs would be nice on the side, to just pick the first Letter of the food I'm trying to look up. 2. I know this is for food only, however it would be nice to see a look up for Supplements too!! At least give u the option to see how much of a benefit or not that a supplement would be. To give you an idea: Example: Arctic Cod Liver Oil Softgels, Vitamin D3 Softgels, Fish Oil Softgels, or Flaxseed Oil Softgels, etc. 3. There should be a Calendar Tab, so I can easily look back to a month, 6 months or even a year ago...right now you have to just use the Arrows at the to to go forward or backwards by the Day only. 4. It would be nice to see the option to see the Highest Rated list of items (Foods, as well as Supplements, if you added that tab) in order to start buying those items, as well as the Lowest Rated list to start avoiding those items. Those are just a few ideas that would be extremely helpful and make your ratings go up!!

Good, could be better

This app is good for folks wanting to eat/monitor an anti-inflammatory diet. I hope over time more food/beverage choices are added as there are some no-brainer staples in the western diet not included in the food choices within the app.

Use it, live it, stay well!!

Not only I'm able to track the inflammation factor in my diet but it tracks my total daily calorie intake and breaks down those calories into protein, carbs and fat and tracks so much more. There are some food items that's not listed but I was able to create a recipe and then add it to my daily tracker. For me this was well worth the purchase.

Not as good as I expected for $6

But I still appreciate using it. Definitely needs more food choices. I have to estimate a lot!

Great app

Give it a try

Not flexible

I am aware that it might be difficult to allow users to input food items, and the calculations could be off, but I need to be able to account for my cereal (among other things- I am just stuck at breakfast). I eat Puffins. It offers a lot of nutritional information, and I am willing to run the risk of a slight miscalculation in the index v. no calculation. Additionally, you could afford to create a tutorial for new users. A quick 5 swipe "here's how you use it- here's what it means" should be standard for such an expensive app. The lack of ability to add the real foods I eat makes this app a waste of $5.99- which is A LOT for a marginally useful app. Sorry I bought this.

Great Tool for eating choices

I am trying to eat an anti- inflamitory diet and this app is a great tool for that. App really needs to have more foods listed but it's a great starting point.

I like it!

I have mostly read the book and agree with a lot of what she says. I do Paleo sporadically so I don't agree with all of it (especially the hatred of saturated fats like coconut oil) but I'm trying to combine the principles of both to my diet. I tend to want the fat and nuts of Paleo without the vegetables, so this keeps me motivated to eat better even within the Paleo world. It's easy to use, and there are a lot more foods in the app than the book, but there are still quite a few missing.

Needs work

I'm really disappointed in the food library. For $5.99 I expected a ton more. Very limited.

Useless and frustrating

Julesg80

Missing too many foods to be useful. I searched for "green tea" and was given a list of results for "beef." Waste of $5.99. Worse than trying to use the website, less info than the book. Search results for "gluten free" = 0 (at least the book provided values for gluten free bread). Completely disappointing. Nowhere near enough values to be able to actually track a normal day's meals. No values for beer, wine, cider, many fruits and vegetables, many KNOWN anti-inflammatory foods, many common anti-inflammatory supplements, etc. let's get with the program and make this a free app while the database is cripplingly small. Also, those "2000 foods" is counting something like "carrots" about 8 times to account for different prep methods- so it's probably more like 500 foods. As a Celiac with IBS who has to limit roughage, very little of what I can eat can be found in this database. It's frankly more depressing and discouraging than it is helpful.
